A nurse is reinforcing teaching with a female client about contraception.

Which of the following statements by the client indicates an understanding of the teaching?

Correct:

A. Creating a stimulating environment helps engage the client and can reduce restlessness and agitation. This can include activities, social interactions, and sensory stimulation tailored to the individual's preferences.

C. Clients with Alzheimer's disease may become overwhelmed and have difficulty making decisions when presented with too many options. By limiting choices, caregivers can help reduce confusion and frustration for the client.

D. Clients with Alzheimer's disease may experience memory impairment and difficulty with orientation. Using written signs can help them navigate their surroundings and locate essential areas, such as the bathroom. Clear and simple signs can be helpful for maintaining independence and minimizing confusion.

incorrect:

B. Confrontation, which involves challenging or arguing with the client, can escalate agitation and distress. Instead, caregivers should use techniques such as redirection, validation, and providing a calm and supportive environment to manage challenging behaviors associated with Alzheimer's disease.

ECT can cause temporary memory loss, particularly for events occurring around the time of the treatment. The client may experience difficulty remembering details of recent events or conversations. This effect is usually temporary and improves over time.

Neck pain is not a typical adverse reaction to ECT. The procedure itself does not involve manipulation or strain on the neck, and significant neck pain following ECT would be unusual. However, it is essential for the nurse to assess and address any discomfort or pain the client experiences after the procedure.

Voice alteration is not a known adverse reaction to ECT. ECT primarily affects the brain and does not directly impact the vocal cords or voice production.

Tingling of the scalp is not a common adverse reaction to ECT. During the procedure, the client receives a brief electrical stimulus, usually applied through electrodes placed on the scalp. Sensations experienced during the procedure are typically related to the electrical stimulation and are transient.
